âI hope nothing will happen.â Brady made the signal of a cross in front of his chest, went to check his companionsâ tents to ensure that it was zipped tight, then sat by the fire to keep watch.
Curtis first looked for a big banyan tree as per Bradyâs shoot requirement. The banyan tree was fat and lush, with many vines, branches, and leaves at the bottom, making it easier to take a shot from the ground.
Curtis then picked a prey that wasnât considered too big and ate it. He then soaked in the water and rested well for the night.
Early morning the next day, he went back energized before the sun came up.
When Brady came out from the tent and saw Curtis, he raised his brows in surprise, saying, âMorning, Ke Di.â
âMorning,â Curtis replied with a pleased expression. Brady was even more surprised.
It seemed that he had a pleasant night yesterday.
âIâm really surprised to see you in such good condition. This is good. Letâs go look for a site for the shooting.â Brady didnât bring up the topic of âending the partnershipâ and spoke as if nothing had happened.
Curtis said, âIâve already found it. Come with me.â
âHmm?â Brady was dubious, but he woke up his companions and they went on their way.
Curtis had picked the best path during the night and removed all obstacles along the way. It only took them half an hour to arrive at the banyan tree.
This tree looked like a forest from afar, but upon walking under its crown, one would realize that there werenât any other tree trunks. The light rays were dark and there was a light white fog on the ground, too. When the morning breeze blew, the place looked like a beautiful and dreamy scene with wisps of silk.
âItâs too beautiful.â Brady praised, at a loss for words. He was immersed in this beautiful scene and only woke up after a while.
âThis is an even greater fit than what I expected. Letâs start right away before the fog dissipates.â Brady then added, âOh my god, itâs really too beautiful. I must film this beautiful scene. If we canât get a good shot, then weâll continue tomorrow.â
Everyone immediately started preparations, setting up the equipment, putting on makeup, grasping every single second. They managed to finish the preparations to be able to film at the optimal timing.
Upon picking up the camera, Brady was like a completely different person, emitting a solemn and unquestionable disposition.
He first filmed the scenery, then instructed Curtis to get ready. âWalk over from there first. Iâll take a look at the effect.â
Curtis did as he instructed. The space under the banyan tree was very big. As there was no light, there werenât many weeds on the ground either. Curtis walked very quickly and finished the distance in just a while.
Curtisâs past works were all done at standstill. Heâd either be standing or laying down. It was completely different from a video.
His speed was so fast that Brady didnât like it at all. He frowned and said, âThatâs not right. Itâs completely wrong. You should be more sluggish and casual. Walk slower. Letâs try it again.â
Curtis walked again.
This time around, he walked slower. It seemed to have met Bradyâs requirement, but it didnât give off the feeling that Brady had imagined it to be.
âWhy? I keep having the feeling that something is amiss.â Brady looked toward Curtis doubtfully. When he saw him unintentionally releasing his real emotions, his doubt immediately dissipated.
Ke Di was the character presented in the magazine he had appeared in. It wasnât a problem with his image, but that they just hadnât found the best moment.
Brady lowered the camera and asked, âWhat do you usually do during shoots?â
âCasual shots,â Curtis said sluggishly.
Brady thought about it for a moment before saying, âThen just move about casually. Iâll decide on the moments to film.â
âEn.â Curtis raised his head and looked at the tree crown. He quite liked this big tree.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
